The Land Ordinance of 1787 was called the Northwest Ordinance. It was an act of the Congress of the Confederation. The primary effect of the ordinance was the creation of the Northwest Territory as the first organized territory of the US out of the region south of the Great Lakes, north & west of the Ohio River, and east of the Mississippi River. It established the precedent by which the US would expand westward across North America by the admission of new states rather than by the expansion of existing states. Also, slavery was banned in this new territory, which had the effect of making the Ohio River the boundary between free and slave territories in the region between the Appalachian Mountains and the Mississippi.
It is difficult to answer this question, because there have been a number of events that were important. For one, the creation of the Constitution, including the Bill of Rights, meant that this country would be governed by the rule of law and would be a democracy rather than a monarchy. Then, there was the acquisition of various pieces of land -- for example, the Northwest Ordinance provided a framework for the creation of between three and five new states, and the Louisiana Purchase doubled the size of the United States and contributed to the expansion of the country.

The primary effect of the ordinance was the creation of the Northwest Territory, from land south of the Great Lakes, north and west of the Ohio River, and east of the Mississippi River. This was the first organized territory of the U.S. It was enacted to establish the precedent to expand westward across North America and admit new states, rather than just the expansion of existing states.
the northwest ordinance of 1787 affeted education by stating that it shall forever be encouraged in the territories and that a certain percentage of all sales within the territories shall go to fund public schooling within the territory. this, however led to an extremely loccalized standard of shool funding. a poor area, which doesn't sell much would have a much poorer(and lower standards) school than a merchant hub which has a better funded school.
